Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - GREAT FUN!!
Back in the 1970s, when I was growing up, every Sunday afternoon our local TV station would broadcast these black and white horror classics under the program's name "Horror Theater". What joy it is to have them now on video. They are especially fun to watch during Halloween time and of course, on late Sunday afternoons.

This one, made in 1944, is great fun. Voodoo, superstition, wind howling, murder, weird island chant music over the phone....its all here.

It has the perfect cast with of course Evelyn Ankers and Elizabeth Harrison as the standouts. Anne Gwynne is lovely and fragile as always and of course, Lon Chaney as the man all these women are mad for playing a professor torn between logic and reason.

Oh how I enjoy these films. No one could make them like Universal who knew how to do it best!! If you're a fan of these old Horror classics ..... you won't be disappointed!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Ankers-Russell-: Wow!
Scream Queen Evelyn Ankers was rarely given anything juicy in her stream of B-classics, mostly in horror. But as Illona, the treacherous villain, she's able to snap and snarl with the best of them. Not only is she a treat but the strange-looking Elizabeth Russell (who usually worked for Cult Director Val Lewton)who resembles a real Cat Woman (as she was in Lewton's "Cat People")dishes it right back to Ankers. Chaney is such a lumbering old hambone, we wonder what the hell all these women were fighting over (not to mention one of his femme students whose deliriously in love with Hambone Chaney). Anne Gwynne is as pretty and vacant as a sugar plum fairy. Shot in seven days, Ankers and Russell are worth watching--and wishing that Universal had used their considerable talents to better advantage through both their careers.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Evelyn Ankers - what a diva!
Weird Woman is a camp classic that deserves a cult following. Ankers, normally cast as a good girl, here plays a conniving stalker. Elizabth Russell also hams it up as a bitter academic wife, who ultimately turns on Ankers. Anne Gwynne, as the lily white voodoo girl from the jungle, is laughably vacant as usual. A LOT OF FUN!
